Hey, Ivy here. Today, resist the urge to start with an automation tool.

Under each heading, record what happens, who owns it, and what information is required. Then write test cases for a duplicate request, a missing owner,

First, ask me for the criteria and a weight for each criterion, with weights totaling 100%; then ask me to score every option from 1 to 10 on each criterion; build a weighted decision matrix; show the arithmetic for every weighted score and total; identify

For each assumption, quote the exact phrase that creates it and tell me what question a skeptical reader might ask. Now review that list yourself. Mark each assumption as supported, unsupported, or irrelevant. If it is
